Claire's shift in the emergency room was as frenetic as ever. As a seasoned ER nurse, she had witnessed it all, but the aftermath of a football match always brought a unique kind of chaos. Today was no exception, and Claire yearned for a quiet evening away from the clamour and injuries.

Despite her aversion to the sport, she unexpectedly connected with Alex, a charming media professional who, as it turned out, was a former national football player.

Initially hesitant, Claire found herself increasingly drawn to Alex, and their interactions blossomed into a promising new relationship.

She's simple. She's lovable. She's stubborn. Everything a guy should want, but apparently doesn't want because she has no time. When she unexpectedly runs into a baseball player at work, they hit it off instantly. They turn into really great friends. One of them wants more, the other isn't sure.
